Dear colleagues:
Please join us for the following "live" symposium:
AOM HCM Symposium -- Understanding Micro-Macro Connections in Organization Theory: The Value of Healthcare Settings (Session #321)
Monday August 10, 2:00 to 3:30 pm EDT
Panelists
- Ann Langley (HEC Montreal)
- Davide Nicolini (U Warwick) – by recorded video
- Beth Goodrick (Florida Atlantic U)
- Tom D'Aunno (NYU)
Moderator
Panelists who hold expertise in developing theory about processes of institutional and organizational change based on empirical studies in healthcare settings will discuss the advantages (and disadvantages) of such settings in understanding macro- micro- (and meso-) connections in organizations and systems. Panelists will discuss potential explanations for why a large number of theory-building articles in organizational journals are based on research in healthcare settings. The session will be interactive with panelists responding to questions from the moderator and session attendees about insightful ways to investigate macro/ micro aspects of change and the potential value of healthcare research settings in doing so.
